homeostasis
Significado: The tendency of a biological system to maintain stable internal conditions despite changes in the external environment.
Homeostasis is a fundamental concept in biology, describing how organisms regulate temperature, blood sugar, pH, and water balance within narrow limits. The concept has been extended to ecology (ecosystem stability), psychology (emotional equilibrium), and economics (market self-correction). It collocates with 'maintain,' 'body,' 'temperature,' and 'disruption.'
Ejemplos
- The body maintains homeostasis by adjusting heart rate, breathing, and sweat production in response to exercise. 身体通过调节心率、呼吸和排汗来应对运动,从而维持稳态。El cuerpo mantiene la homeostasis ajustando la frecuencia cardíaca, la respiración y la producción de sudor en respuesta al ejercicio.身体は運動に応じて心拍数、呼吸、発汗を調整することでホメオスタシスを維持する。신체는 운동에 반응하여 심박수, 호흡, 발한을 조절함으로써 항상성을 유지한다.
- Diabetes occurs when the body's homeostasis for blood glucose regulation is disrupted. 糖尿病是因身体对血糖调节的稳态遭到破坏而引起的。La diabetes se produce cuando se altera la homeostasis de la regulación de la glucosa en sangre.糖尿病は、血糖調節に関する身体のホメオスタシスが乱れた場合に発症する。당뇨병은 혈당 조절에 관한 신체의 항상성이 교란될 때 발생한다.
- The concept of homeostasis has been applied beyond biology to describe the self-regulating nature of complex systems. 稳态的概念已被应用于生物学之外,用来描述复杂系统的自我调节特性。El concepto de homeostasis se ha aplicado más allá de la biología para describir la naturaleza autorreguladora de los sistemas complejos.ホメオスタシスの概念は生物学を超えて、複雑なシステムの自己調節的な性質を説明するために応用されている。항상성의 개념은 생물학을 넘어 복잡한 시스템의 자기조절적 특성을 설명하는 데 응용되어 왔다.
